The Apple Watch ECG does at times misinterpret runs of PACs and PVCs as Afib.
A Holter Monitor ordered by your Cardiologist or Cardiac Electrophysiologist to wear for a few days, weeks, or a month, accurately documents your abnormal rhythms and your % PAC and PVC burden. You may ask your doctor to order this test periodically to monitor your progress as you make lifestyle changes discussed in Afib Cure.

My pacemaker identified my afib, but in my first year on Eliquis it’s only ID’d it twice, and I only noticed it one of those times. My Fitbit has proven incapable of distinguishing between any of my heart’s various weird beat patterns. I’m going to have to read the ‘Cure’ book and try to get a better understanding of whether I need to actually be on this drug, or if I need a different cardiologist or just try the pill in the pocket I’ve read about here…

Or you purchase a Kardia device to monitor it.
